I agree Boncey, if Sarri is still in a job he should drop him for the next few games at least. 

First time i've ever seen a player refuse to come off, where was the Captain? I'm not John Terry's biggest fan but he would have dragged him off the pitch if he was still there.

He'll probably get fined two weeks wages (about £750,000) but still be playing the next game.
Another nail in Sarri's coffin

  AD, you're a hard man.

Is this the future of goal celebrations?

Saw the fan run on KP, but what happened with the steward?

Looks like from a video clip I’ve seen is that the he was trying to kick Grealish when he ran into the crowd after scoring the winner.

Another video clip saw him being dragged out by police.

It has been reported that the 27 year old jobless Brum fan has been jailed for 14 weeks and has been ordered to pay £100 to the villa player.

No mention of the Brum steward yet though!

For what?

Financial fair play breaches. EFL pushing for maximum punishment.

OK- but it won't save us as we and Ipswich are already doomed

Lofty the lion is a pussy. Bring back the dinosaur!

Birmingham deducted 9 points.

Is that a conformed fact- or just rumour?

Not confirmed yet, but pretty nailed on.
They were expecting 12.

I have to say that's a pretty random number of points. Seems like the EFL are making it up as they go along. Surely it would be better for everybody to have a clearly defined set of penalties so that all clubs know what they are facing?

EFL were pushing for 12 points. Would be interesting to know what mitigated their punishment.

Thoroughly enjoyed the England game. Two 18 year olds playing in a very young team and with the exception of Dier who was a liability, they played with pace, pressure and considerable skill - a really good watch. Currently ranked 5th in the world and probably just about deserve it, but the fact that they are so young, with so many options and players coming through suggests they could go higher.
Can understand why Henderson is rated so highly - he was immense.

League 1 is amazing this year. After today's games there are only 6 points between 12th and 22nd. Absolutely anyone's guess who will get relegated.

Should be fun for us next season.

We will walk league one

Apparently Magennis does know where the goal is.

Unsurprisingly, Solskjaer got the job.
Bet Molde aren't happy although the payoff is likely to be huge.

Breathtaking player. In the Ronaldo v Messi debate, there's only one winner for me.

Ronaldo is the better player in my opinion.
